Flames / Nucks gaf just set the bar pretty high for salt levels come playoff time between Habs and Leafs gaf. God damn you could wipe out an entire species of slug with the salt in here.
Pfft you could salt all the steaks made from all the cows in the world with a Habs/Leafs salt

come in my shame circle
So you're telling me Habs/Leafs first round is very possible and the Leafs could play a big role in deciding this?

We have two more games against the Habs this season with only 8-9 games left.

Speaking of the last time the Leafs made the playoffs (per the Leafs section of HFboards):

  • Youtube hadn't launched
  • Facebook had just launched
  • No Leafs playoffs games have been in HD
  • Anchorman was in theatres
  • Friends was on it's last season
  • The Red Soxs were still loveable losers

I can't confirm all of those but still, WOW!

Well Leafs are my least favorite team (for obvious reasons hehe) but congrats to Leafs-GAF(since you guys are awesome on here) for making it to the dance.

Maybe this will jink you and you'll miss !

Best GM evaaaaaaaa.

Lines from this morning.

Latendresse-Turris-Alfie
Conacher-Zibanejad-Silfverberg
Greening-Pageau-Condra
Kassian-Smith-Neil

What I like:

Regin out of the fucking lineup
Pageau on the 3rd line
Smith and Neil on the 4th line where they belong
Condra on the 3rd line

What I hate:
Kassian still in the lineup
Kassian
And Kassian still in the lineup.
Why is Kassian playing instead of Obrien.

4th line all star Matt Kassian is better than first round bust Cam Barker.

Good lord, getting paid.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

I like Howard but come on!!! He is worth more like 4 million on maybe a 4 year contract, not 5.3 on 6. Now I'm pissed off which will only add to my rage if they lose tonight. Dang it, I hate this entire team and season right now. Seriously, we have Mrazek coming up as well which sucks because I think he will surpass Howard as a goaltender in a few years. Giving him 6 with Detroit's inability to trade away roster players means if Mrazek does pass Howard, we are going to have a 5.3 million dollar backup.

Facebook had launched iirc but
  • It will have been 3273 days between playoff appearances.
  • Martin St. Louis won the Hart and Mark Messier was still playing in the league.
  • The best selling game was GTA San Andreas
  • Every Call of Duty game had yet to be released
  • The Da Vinci Code and the South Beach Diet were tearing up book charts
  • Usher's "Yeah" was the top single of the year so far
  • Kate Upton was 11
  • It had been less then a year since Bush's Mission Accomplished speech on the Iraq war.

At least Kassian can fight.

The Xbox and PS2 were still the top consoles.

The Leafs playoff drought lasted through an entire console generation :(

The Leafs being in the playoffs is still a baffling prospect for me as well, or at least the idea of a potential Habs/Leafs first round matchup. Same with the Islanders if they make it.

Also wtf at that Howard contract. AND another wtf at Halls slash last night as mentioned, just crazy to take a hell of a chop at someone like that.

Soviets strapped up on the ice. Amazing.

Schneider discovered the gun when he checked a Soviet player into the boards during a pre-Olympics exhibition game and the opponent’s jersey slid up, revealing the firearm. Though the weapon wasn’t actually intended to intimidate the American team. As U.S. goalie Jim Craig tells it, the packing “player” was a KGB agent who was traveling with the Soviet squad to keep its players from defecting to the West.

In fact, the only reason the KGB agent was on the ice at all was because the Soviets had no fear of the callow Americans, who averaged five years younger and 13 pounds lighter than the Red Army veterans they faced in Lake Placid. Thus the Soviets had so little respect for the American team that they let the KGB agent take a few shifts. It’d be like a pro basketball team letting one of their security guards log a few minutes against their opponent – and still winning by 20.
